HELP! FCP Imports MPEG files without audio! at DVinfo.net

I have some MPEG files that play fine in QT and other video programs but when I try to import them into FCP6, they do not have any audio! What the heck is going on? Please help! Thanks.

I would suggest converting them into a format FCP likes better, such as DV NTSC or something like that. Download MPEG Streamclip to do all those conversions for you.

Thanks, giving it a try now. The converter sure is slow and I have an hour's worth of footage to convert. At least it's broken up into 10 minute files.

***fingers crossed***

It totally worked. I'm stoked! Thanks.
